| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? The reason I prefer Walnut, particularly Black Walnut, above even Maple, is because of it's consistency.

| The Science of Cables @calanderWas NASA mentioned in a now deleted post?I don't think so. Maybe cleeds said something - Who knows......Jim | |
| The Science of Cables WOW! jsauter - Get with it! Read the post - I said that $.26 per ft. is what some cable manufactures pay for their bulk 24AWG bulk ins. copper lead wire from China.Not NASA, or anyone else, except HEA, uses $1K per ft. signal or data transfer cabl... | |
| The Science of Cables @cleedsI have been trying to avoid a name game here.OK here are two that claim to use Graphene in their cables: Courious Technologies - Graphene Matrix and Graphene Extreme; cerioustechnologies.comMad Scientist - Flexible Carbon/Graphene madscie... | |
| The Science of Cables @jsautterMy statement was plain and simple..... Aside from HEA, there is not one single industry that uses $1K per ft signal transfer cable - period.So, you show me one that does! | |

| The Science of Cables Well, you know Geoff - coated with Graphene; or filled with incredible, semi-conductor liquid; or made in USA ultra high grade, specially treated, conductors - with multi layers of high-tech shielding (actually come from China bulk conductor wire ... | |
| The Science of Cables @douglas_schroeder Thanks.Yes, I am open to trying something new and will reserve further opinions until I have tried for myself.....Jim |
